title: "Pakistan and seven other Muslim states condemn Israel’s settlement policies"
description: "Most outlets reported that Pakistan, along with seven other Muslim states, condemned Israel’s continued settlement expansion and specifically rejected the E1 settlement plan. Several also noted the joint statement was issued by the Foreign Office. While the framing was largely consistent, some outlets, like Dunya News and the Business Recorder, placed more emphasis on the E1 plan itself, while others, such as Dawn and Aaj News (English), used the phrase “illegal settlement policies” more prominently. 24 News HD referred to the group as “Arab-Islamic states,” whereas others used “Muslim states” or “nations.”"
